Thank you for the info. I am printing that out and putting it in my idea folder. I still don't know that I will make one but it is great to gather all of this knowledge.

I did! I got 2 24lb blocks, one was out of stock but arrived yesterday. The first one arrived pretty quickly. I feel your pain on the spill. :(

It was more of an idea that I was researching for the feasibility. About bar soap - I had recently asked our pediatrician about whether or not a bar soap was recommended for babies and we had a discussion about it and she thought it was fine for 6+ months. We used something along the lines of...

I use onlinelabels and their Maestro design program for labels, they have tons of sizes and shapes. As far as packaging goes, I am in the same boat - I can't seem to find something that wows me!

I have been trying to research the safety of using rosemary in a soap for babies (6+ months old and up). So far the only information I can really find is on use of rosemary essential oils, which are a no. Does anyone here know if there is a percentage of ground rosemary that could be added to...

Loving this thread! I so needed some of this today. Glad to know I am not the only one :)

I would bring the pumpkin soap, it's such a popular thing now. We had a limited edition pumpkin soap and I am going to end up probably bringing it back because so many people ask me for it year round. I also agree to bring as many different ones as you can because you never quite know who your...

Love the colors! Kind of looks like a smiling monster with one eye to me :)

I started my spreadsheets to track cost and am working on what my core product line will be. I've been out of work since December with a concussion from a car accident, and now with post concussion syndrome I am no where near where I was before the accident yet but accomplishing the smallest of...

Thanks! I was also considering a different sized or shape label. Most of them don't bunch up that badly, but this gave the perfect example of why I am not in love with this method. I'll look into the heat gun too, that might be the solution, I bet that would help with air bubbles getting under...

am at a loss, I want to take my packaging to the next level but other than wrapping in clingfilm and sealing with a label, is anyone doing something more creative or standout with their m&p soaps? Here is basically what I am doing now but it just doesn't seem to have a polished professional...

Those are gorgeous! I think I need to learn stamping now! What a great way to make your soap stand out. Thanks for posting the link!

That's hilarious! I needed a good laugh :)

I got this for a friend who wanted me to come up with some custom soaps for holiday gifts. I usually don't like minty scents but this one had us both in love! We used it in bath salts and m&p soaps. For the soap, I went with a conservative 1% and it really came through nicely without...

I have been looking at these recipes for dog soap but haven't tried them just yet : http://candleandsoap.about.com/od/soaprecipes/a/dogsoaprecipes_2.htm I am more hesitant to do a cat soap because they are so much more sensitive.

Love the ovals mold! I may just have to get one of those myself! :)

This just happened to me as well, I usually buy from WSP but saw a deal on another small company's site for a weird scent I was looking for to make some soaps with my kids. The package came with just the name of the scent and nothing else. Discovering that is legal I am going to be far more...

Thanks for the link!

That's good to know, we are east coast too!

We did a show that actually had all of the tables touching lengthwise across the whole room...we were like how do you expect people to get into their space?! It's amazing what you get at some shows. Hopefully it all worked out!
